In terms of plot, it's the best Donnie Yen film in the past 2 years.
In terms of action choreography, Special ID was better to me.

but special ID plot sucks big time.. all the product placement, those car chase were draggy... pppfffttttt

If you learned any martial arts, then you will see choreography in this one is better. Special ID was just too fake.

this action directing of course better as it highlight certain part of fights nicely. for example legs, fist, and etc..

Indeed, not just the plot. The dubbing was annoying and the dialogues were cheesy as hell as well. But its fight choreography was way grittier than Kung Fu Jungle. But then again it really depends whether the audience would prefer to watch realistic fight action, or doesn't mind the old skool over-the-top traditional kung fu.

LOL you trolling? You're comparing traditional Chinese kung fu to MMA. And yes, I've learnt martial arts. And I'm perhaps the only MMA blogger in Malaysia. What martial arts have you learnt that would allow you to fight on hanging artworks, breaking bones with fingers and jump a distance that's humanly impossible?

EDIT: Sorry, what I meant previously was Special ID's fight choreography of Donnie Yen, not the ridiculous car chase action or the chick's fight scenes.

if u know how martial art works, you will how a human can break bones of another human easily
even use the "grab" technique to grab the flesh off the joints

If you know how to read, you would understand that I did not say that it's impossible for a human to break another human's bone easily.

if u really know MMA, there is no difficulty in body slamming a tiger or even a bear

all it takes is determination and will power

You don't need to know MMA to body slam a tiger or a bear, my friend. All it takes is strength and animal sedation.

IMO, this is definitely one of the best martial arts movie in recent years

lots of tributes to the old school HK martial art movies contributors, and a few familiar faces as cameo as well.

For the plot, nothing new and surprising, but you don't need a special plot for a good martial art movie, as all of the fighting scenes is top notch and keeping you at the edge of the seat
Most of the fighting involved different disciplines of chinese martial arts, and you may see a few moves of Judo as well in the final fight scene.

Any fans of martial arts or action movie definitely should go watch this!

overall, I give it 4.5/5 just for the action alone


* another reason I go watch is because of Charlie Yeung, my goddess of yesteryear oh man, she doesn't age well

Yes, I saw one nice Uchi mata and some Jujitsu techniques. Kam nah is quite impressive too.
But my favourite is the long pole part, as this weapon is very very hard to master.

The fight scenes at the road is impressive, real man fight on the street.

Teddy Wong was not bad too (ShaoLin practitioner himself), just that I didn't expect Donny can win such easy. Actually I saw Donny starting to win after using Judo technique.. haha guess Teddy not yet familiar with it that's why he get whack.

u tahu ini movie kan?

I'm surprised nobody mentioned about the hilarious CGI, especially the fight sequence under the moving vehicles at the end.

Jangan persoal. He learnt /k board martial arts.


On a side note..thanks for the review from everyone. Will definitely pick this up to watch in cinema.
